This JCB 214S is a backhoe loader — sometimes called a backhoe or digger — a versatile piece of construction equipment designed to handle both digging and loading tasks from a single machine. JCB is one of the world's most widely recognised construction equipment manufacturers, producing machinery for construction, agriculture, and infrastructure industries across the globe. This 1993 unit is offered in used condition from Illinois, USA, priced at $24,500.
The machine comes with a strong specification package as confirmed by the seller. It is equipped with four-wheel drive and four-wheel steer, giving it enhanced manoeuvrability and traction on uneven or soft ground. The powershift transmission allows gear changes under load without interrupting power delivery, which contributes to smoother operation and reduced operator effort during repetitive cycles. The recorded hour meter stands at 2,967 hours.
The operator's cab includes heat, providing a degree of comfort for working in colder conditions. The backhoe end is fitted with a 24-inch bucket and includes the Extradig configuration, which extends the machine's digging depth capability beyond the standard reach — a practical advantage on deeper trenching or foundation work. The loader end is fitted with a 4-in-1 bucket, which can perform dozing, grading, clamping, and loading functions, adding considerable versatility to the front attachment. Flip-over forks are also included, further expanding the range of material-handling tasks the machine can perform without additional equipment.
The machine runs on 16.9x24 rear tyres, a size commonly found on backhoe loaders of this class and suited to general site and road conditions.
